Let the length equal x

Then the width would be 4x + 8 (8 feet more than 4 times the length)

Area = length x width:

5,472 = x * 4x+ 8

Simplify:

5472 = 4x^2 + 8x

Subtract 5472 from both sides:

4 x^2 + 8x - 5472 = 0

Use the quadratic formula to solve for x.

X = 36

Now you know the length is 36 feet

The width = 4(36) + 8 = 152 feet

Now find the perimeter: 152 + 152 + 36 + 36 = 376 feet.

The answer is B. 376

Serjik [45]

Answer:

38.46%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The total number of students = 325

The number of students preferred pineapples = 200

Therefore, The number of students preferred bananas = (325 - 200) = 125

Among 325 students, banana is preferred 125 students

Among 1 student, banana is preferred 125/325 students

Among 100 students, banana is preferred (125*100)/325 students

= 500/13

= 38.46% (2 decimal places)
